Any word on the open? Did they get any runs in today? What does it look like for tomorrow? If it rains out on Saturday will they run it on Sunday? Not looking for he said she said or I heard from a guy that knows a guy that has a friend that knows. I would like to know if it rains out on Saturday will they run it on Sunday and will we get one or two time shots? Thanks Barry

They did run today until 3 or 4, that is all I know

oh ya, I think somebody set the g record at 9.80 LOL

Must be one of those underated 305 cars. Wish I had one.

They said they hope to be able to get some done tomorrow afternoon and commented that it would be one and go. As for Sunday all they said was they will finish what they don't get done tomorrow before the import qualifying starts at 11am,

Track said. Radar shows this to pass, and that will dry the track and run.

I will take my chances at lvd tomorrow $50 two time trials $1000 to win chance of rain 0% .

Barry,
I know of a few 305 cars for sale, but not ours, if you think it's easy.

It was a great event,If there were no weather forecasters this event would've been even better. It was a good example of racers missing out because of weather worries.

On Friday I know some got 4 runs even with the rain starting at 4 pm

On Saturday the rain stopped at around 8 am and after drying the track we got 2 time trials. There were about 26- 28 stockers and a dozen super stockers. Eliminations were done around 630

Congrats to Tony for his win and the GTAA Erwin for r/u in SS, I believe that Vic Santos was in the semis

Congrats to John Gray for his win and Tin Boudreau for r/u in stock, I believe the semifinalists were Tim Stickles and Kevin Hawkins

I did not see a qualifying sheet, but they announced that Vic was #1 in SS at 10.07 ? he is usually in gt/ha or gt/ia I think he was in GT/IA

Good luck to all at the many races in row that are from now till the end of June. Hope to see many ASRA racers in the winners photos

Dave thanks for the update. Rod, I was just busting Dave back about the 9:80 G record. As most of us know Dave has a 305 car. Although I do think the 305 is a good combo. Just not as good as a 74 350 corvette. LOL Barry

25 Cars made the Stock qualifying sheet. Dean Ribeiro Landed in the #1 spot with his new ride. 10.97 in H/SA. Congrats on your return. Congratulations to Jon Gray on his Stock WIN and Tim Boudreau on the RU, Also Tony on his SS win.
